Bagging the monumental Tramp Attack for last night's Club Shipwrecked was an absolute thrill.
Liverpool's greatest ever band, and you can quote us on that.

SHIPW003 - Professor Yaffle
Today we took delivery of the fabled Test Pressings of the double album compendium we're releasing, made up of tracks from the four majestic Professor Yaffle albums.
To our ears they sound magic already; this will make the gig on 12th July even sweeter. It's going to be special - there aren't loads of tickets left now, so don't delay, and come drift in space with us... 👨🚀

The nation of Sudan - and now South Sudan - has a long and chequered history of political turmoil and unrest, but at the heart of Sudanese culture is the vibrant, urgent and searing music that is the result of being located between several worlds.
Nubian grooves and ancient vocal stylings blend with synthesisers, strings and big bands to create a distinctive, almost other worldly sound.
Decades of political oppression and upheaval have put this fascinating culture at risk, yet thanks to some heroic archiving, much survives.
At Club Shipwrecked, we're combining our own collection with resources such as Awesome Tapes From Africa and Ostinanto & Habibi Funk Records to bring you episode six of Radio Shipwrecked International, scratching the surface of this thrilling and vibrant musical scene.
